Well... suppose from my application, I want to convert a Word document to PDF. How would I do that? I did quite a bit of research and the only way I found was to use CUPS-PDF and have Word print to that printer. Then, I can retrieve the converted PDF document. Is there any other way?
I don't do any printing from my own app but I want to have various applications that can print to convert a given document to PDF... -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat/Skype:LaurentDaudelin http://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software laurent.daude...@verizon.net Photo Gallery Store: http://laurentdaudelin.shutterbugstorefront.com/g/galleries On Oct 15, 2009, at 11:01, Kyle Sluder wrote: > On Thu, Oct 15, 2009 at 10:58 AM, Laurent Daudelin > <laurent.daude...@verizon.net> wrote: >> Yes, I know, it's terrible, but it's part of being able to convert any >> document to PDF and so far, I haven't found any other way then using a >> virtual printer driver.
